Livid Guardian's Endless Coddling

Aria asked to confirm if Chelsea really kissed Levi, "Ms. Baker, are you sure he is the one who you kissed but not someone else?"

Chelsea glanced at Levi yearning for a different expression and hummed, "Wait, I will show the picture."

'Picture?!' Aria turned to Levi whose smirk failed to hide away from her "Ms. Baker, you will not get it in the gallery."

Chelsea who had checked the album where the picture was stored, rummaged it again and again before asking, "President Cooper, how did you know?"

Aria pointed to Levi as she spoke, "He is not just an ordinary ex-serviceman but a talented ex-military man. He is my assistant and the team under us is far smarter than you could even think of."

Chelsea wasn't surprised nor her expression changed while stating, "I heard President Hanes and Chairman Hanes talking about you two, no, about you three... Did he delete it?"

Aria glanced at Levi who was regretting letting Aria and Chelsea talk, "Not exactly but on his instructions."

Chelsea snorted and continued narrating the next meeting of her with Levi.

-- 

On the day of the success party of the fashion show of Luke Baker and Alia.

Since it was the weekend and Chelsea was bored, she pestered Luke Baker, her cousin, to take her to the party as it was a high-end party where only invitees were allowed. 

Since Aria and Alan's relationship was disclosed, many wanted to attend the party to meet them so Luke and his father were busy as hell meeting and greeting everyone but Aria and Alan had no plans to attend.

The one who represented then were Levi, Aria's assistant, and Nathan, Alan's assistant. Hence many swarmed around them to confirm they were really a couple for such a long time.

Curious who the tall men were and how they were in poise facing the crowd of people, she went to them. She saw Nathan and identified him as Alan's assistant hence she guessed another man as Levi and excitedly lurked between many men and stood in front of him.

Levi's stoic presence turned extremely frosty and deadly when his eyes landed on the woman who waved her hand at him with a mischief smile at him.

Even though Chelsea was drunk the previous time, she remembers everything that happened so she didn't feel she has to be reserved. 

Levi had no choice of going while others were asking him questions without leaving space for him to move away from them. If Aria was there and asked him to make way, he wouldn't have cared before pushing them aside but he was representing Aria so he had to maintain the decorum without revealing his irritating emotions. To top it off, Chelsea was standing there.

He turned left when a voice sounded on that side, Chelsea moved in front of him when she identified his plan which repeated until Levi was annoyed to the core and others started talking about him instead of the couple or designers

Luke Baker who noticed Levi twirling, asked the helpers to disperse the guest so that Levi and Nathan could rest. That's when he noticed his crazy cousin torturing Levi.

Luke reached Levi and gently smacked Chelsea's head, "What's wrong with you?"

Chelsea blurted out when others were still dispersing aside. "Bro, I want to date him." 

Levi and Luke: "..."

Levi feigned ignorance and was leaving, Chelsea grabbed his wrist quickly and reported to Luke, "Bro, help me out. He runs away from me every time."

Luke was confused about what to do, he knew Levi was single and as a brother, he also knew Chelsea might not get a better man than him. At the same time, winning on Levi is hard as stone.

Levi shrugged her hand and told Luke which was more like an order with an underlying meaning, "President Baker, look after your sister."

Luke wanted to accept it but Chelsea responded to Levi with a naughty smile hanging on her lips, "You can look after me."

Levi really wished he could crack her head and stuff some sense yet he tried to leave silently but he had really underestimated Chelsea. She pulled him and challenged, "If you can win in a drinking challenge against me, I will listen to you."

Luke tried to break in, "No no, assistant Levi, please don't listen to her. She is crazy so ignore her."

Chelsea burst out without caring about others, "Are you even my brother?"

Levi who assumed Chelsea would listen to him and will never follow him accepted the challenge, "When you lose, you better don't irritate me and create a scene."

Luke tried to speak but Chelsea grinned at Levi pressing her palm on Luke's mouth and pointed at the bar counter for Levi to lead. The latter walked ahead without noticing Chelsea kicking Luke's leg when he said, "I very well know you will not listen to him."

Chelsea smugged, "He doesn't know."

…

At the end of twenty minutes, Chelsea was dead drunk and Levi looked unaffected with his cold expression, "Don't follow me from now on."

Chelsea idiotically smiled under the influence of alcohol, "Okay but I have a simple request." She dragged the word 'Simple' sounding it as the simplest.

Levi didn't take it seriously and asked, "Go ahead." Then he saw her taking her mobile out as she said pointing at the distance, "Look over there."

Levi followed it and saw a group of people and found nothing special, "Wha-"

Chelsea who was taking a selfie trying to kiss his cheek ended up locking his lips when he turned to her to ask what she was pointing at. Chelsea was initially shocked but soon grinned in joy.

Levi got off from the barstool feeling his blood boil in veins, no he wasn't excited by her but anger was dancing in his veins roaring to physically punish her.

Luke who watched them completely fled between the two to save his sister at the cost of getting beaten by Levi, "She is drunk, she is drunk, she is drunk…" He yammered whereas he knew well it was all Chelsea's plan and that woman was capable to drink more wine.

Levi had to respect Skyline fashions cooperation with Aida fashions hence he stepped back and eventually left the party cursing Chelsea in his mind thinking how could Chairman Hanes have such a secretary.

---

Aria didn't like the story, "I had expected more of it. Like forcing a kiss on him pinning him to the wall." Then she turned to Levi, "Sigh, you are so naive in the relationship."

Mother Brown had to force herself from laughing so that she wouldn't make her son anger with her.

Aria shook her head and probed, "Okay okay next… Ahhh… Alan…" Alan scooped her up in his arms after checking the time, "We are getting late…"

Aria scratched her head and looked at three who stood up with them, "I have a doctor appointment now, Levi, we will continue the story next time." Alan walked towards the door hence Aria peeked behind and continued, "So it's Monday. Bye."

Levi didn't respond looking at the couple leave while Chelsea mumbled, "There is nothing else. I am chasing after him from the next day and he blocked my number in his mobile."

She coincidentally noticed him and his mother at the hospital for a regular body checkup. She was asking mother Brown to help her with his son as they strolled around.

While Chelsea and Mother brown continued to talk, Aria was on the verge of tears in the scanning room looking at the doctor's furrowed brows watching the monitor.
